Robert Jeffress Sunday Comments About Church Burning Down ‘It’s like those flames represented the flames of Hell’
First Baptist Dallas Church pastor Robert Jeffress addressed his church on Sunday, two days after a four-alarm fire burned up the historic portion of his 134-year-old SBC church, telling congregants, “It’s like those flames represented the flames of Hell, and they were destroying the truth that I had banked my life and eternity on.”
The noted SBC megachurch, which comprises several buildings in the downtown Dallas area, including a $130M main sanctuary building it built in 2013, was otherwise intact, save for its oldest historic building, which was built in 1890 and came to serve as the secondary chapel and offsite meeting place
Jeffress told his congregants:
This last Friday night, it looked like the gates of Hell were prevailing, that Satan was going to win. That was Friday night, but ladies and gentlemen, it is Sunday morning. It is a day of resurrection.
It’s not a day of death, nd I am pledging to you, we’re going to rebuild that sanctuary. We’re going to recreate it as a standing symbol of the truth, the unchangeableness, the endurance of the Word of God.
We cannot allow Satan to have the last word,” he added. “If we allow that thing to remain in ruins, it will look to the whole world like we’ve been defeated by the evil one. So we’re going to rebuild, we’re going to recreate.”Responding to critics who have been mocking him for the fire in light of his previous comments thanking God for saving Trump’s life last week, believing there was a contradiction here. Jeffress was unbothered, offering:
This week, I’ve received several requests from scoffers (who were mocking) mocking, saying, ‘Last week you were up there telling everybody in America that God thwarted an assassination attempt. Where is that God now? Is that same God responsible for allowing that fire in your church?’ To which I say, ‘Absolutely, it’s the same God.’
He is so powerful, so wonderful. He can cause the worst things in your life to work together for our good and His eternal purpose. That’s the kind of God we serve.”

Sounds like Jeffress needs to get his focus off of temporal things, like buildings, and set his mind on things above.

Horrible event for long time members of that church. So many memories. Coming that people had just been in there I hope the cause isn’t going to be something not fully extinguished.
Other thing (and I’m sorry to mention it) why in the world was Jeffers down there in a starched and crisp suit? I mean is he the grownup who couldn’t get attention at church or school as a child, and would come with a little suit on? Jeffers lost me when he pushed the jab so hard (wonder what he says now thata we KNOW the medical studies data.)
